Very nice, the only Spyderco fixed blades I have left are two Mules, S90V and Super Blue. Your fixed collection is admirable.

FB27 Spyderco Woodcraft

The Woodcraft; the mule that isn’t a mule.

:) I didn’t think I was ever going to find one of these. The packaging is a bit knocked about, but that’s fine.

Is it hard to pick up Perrin fb in Australia?
Because in France, it's near impossible to have the most commun, the green handle model and impossible to found the black blade model! Fred Perrin himself can't found one for me!

You have a fantastic collection!

I found this one in the USA, I haven’t seen any here.

Mules? I just haven’t gone there yet. With the restricted excess to folding knives in Australian now; may be soon.

Bh49 :D Mate! You are just not looking in the right places.
I have pictures of my folders plastered all over this place. :o

I saw quite a few of them and thought that they deserve a separate thread as you do for fixed blades. this is it.

Very nice, bdblue :D

It is going to be interesting to see how they compare to the sprint run that may be coming out.

Spyderco the Enuff FB31

As soon as you take hold of one, you know they are meant to be work knives.
They feel comfortable and solid in the hand.

That comparison shot with the izula surprised me but its still hard to tell as some knives although similar in size to others have more substance.
Are they more substantial in the hand than a izula or is it neither here nor there ?.
Thank you.

The Izula grip is a little thicker, but the Enuff grip is deeper.

They are same over all length, but longer grip and the FRN scales on the Enuff make for a more securer hold on it an the Izula.

I’m a fan of G10, but the FRN on the Enuff is going make it a better knife for those messy jobs and a lot easier to clean up.

Not sure if this will make any sense. But in the hand the Izula feels like a small knife, :o which of course it is. The Enuff on the other hand, has the feel of a big knife.

That's what I was thinking although some knives share a similar profile they feel bigger in hand thanks I have the izula 2 and Esee HT is great but the scales disappointed me for the price.
I think they could've had liners and upped the Quality I have the candiru too which ill get around to fitting some stabilised scales I think to give it a bit more in the hand.
